DEKALB COUNTY, GA — The DeKalb County Sheriff's Office, in conjunction with the Cobb County Sheriff's Office, arrested a suspect for the fatal shooting of two men at a Stone Mountain gas station in April.

Sheriff's investigators arrested Hakeem Ross, 29, of Stone Mountain on Tuesday, at a Powder Springs home, in connection with the April deaths of Jamitre Weaver and Gerico Floyd, the DeKalb sheriff's office said in a news release. Ross is charged with two counts of malice murder.
